How to Make Mulled Wine
- In a large stainless steel stockpot, combine 1 bottle (750ml) of dry red wine, 1 orange (sliced), 1 lemon (sliced), 1/2 cup apple cider, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 6 whole cloves, 2 cinnamon sticks, 1 star anise, and a pinch of ground nutmeg.
- Place the stockpot over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally.
- Once simmering, reduce the heat to very low, cover, and let it simmer gently for 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and deepen. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Before serving, carefully strain the mulled wine through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth lined strainer to remove the spices and fruit pieces.
- Ladle the fragrant mulled wine into heatproof mugs or glasses. Garnish with an orange slice and cinnamon stick, if desired.
